Hi all, I am trying to install MySQL on Solaris 8 on Intel Architecture. Everything goes ok, until I try to execute command: safe_mysqld --user=mysql & nothing happens and in the file /usr/local/var/host_name.err there is such a statement: 010402 10:24:16 getpwnam: Bad file number 010402 10:24:16 Aborting I am newbie, so any suggestions will be appreciated.
